PREPARING STUDENTS FOR MORE.

Black Tie Blue Jeans, Grand Rapids Christian’s signature fundraising event, raises money for the Eagles Fund. Every Grand Rapids Christian student benefits from the Eagles Fund which has committed $1.7 million this school year for essential resources to students and families including Student Support Services, tuition assistance, and additional programs.  Each and every gift to the Eagles Fund provides immediate resources with a lasting impact. With your help, we hope to raise $600,000 toward this goal at Black Tie Blue Jeans.

As a sponsor, you will receive special recognition and enjoy great food and drink during the event.  Thank you for your partnership as we prepare students to become effective servants of Christ in contemporary society.


 

THE EAGLES FUND
AT GRAND RAPIDS CHRISTIAN SCHOOLS

Each and every gift given to the Eagles Fund provides immediate resources that have a long lasting impact on our students. When you give to the Eagles Fund, you are helping support the hundreds of students who are receiving tuition assistance from Grand Rapids Christian Schools and the over 450 students who are receiving Student Support Services, and enhancing the educational experience for all of our students.

Your gift, along with the contributions of thousands of alumni, parents, grandparents, friends, corporations, and foundations, helps Grand Rapids Christian in its mission to prepare students to be effective servants of Christ in contemporary society.

Because of you, students at Grand Rapid Christian are prepared to be more.  Everything on our campuses from tuition assistance to academic programs, outstanding faculty to fine arts and athletic experiences, is supported through generous donations just like yours.
